CALMAT BUS526: Chapter 33 Q14 - Defendant Hocking is an attorney who filed a collection suit on behalf of a client. On Nov 19, 1986, Lynn Green used a VISA credit card to purchase an electronics keyboard for $196.44 from Highland Appliances, Inc. VISA refused to accept the charge, and Highland assigned the debt to the Lee Corp.. In June 1991, Hocking, serving as the attorney for Lee Corp., filed a complaint in state court against Green. After the parties settled the underlying dispute, Green sued in federal court, alleging that Hocking violated FDCPA by misstating the total amount due based on his incorrect calculation of the appropriate interest rate. The complaint alleged that Hocking violated 15 USC Sec. 1692e(2)(A) of FDCPA 15 USC Sec. 1692f(1) of FDCPA
